1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

The Mini Centaur Thread

    2. gaiboiozz Very beautiful design! Exiting to see him being close to completed!:D
       
    3. I'm super excited guys, I just found a LUTS Yul satyresse lower body in deep orange after searching for like... a year xD I like KidDelfs, they just don't fit my crew so I'm always making hybrids and it was a PITA to find that centaur body w/o the human parts attached xD Now just to figure out how to get her a proper tail cause I she's supposed to be a horse centaur as well so the deer tail of Yul does not really fit... if worse comes to worse, Alpaca tail it is.
       
    4. I'm curious as to how people get their LUTS centaurs to rear. I've only done it successfully once. Does anyone have advice? Maybe my guy is just a bit floppy.
      I want to see more photos of everyone centaurs too. :D
       
    5. I had my boy standing on a grippy desk mat for stability, I then put his two back upper legs as far back as they would go, the rear hooves in line with his lower legs, then clicked his upper torso as far forward as it could go. It was then just a matter of getting his front legs and arms in the right position for balancing. I also didn't use his resin tail, as I'm pretty sure it was too long to do this pose. I guess the main thing was having his center of gravity as in line as possible- hope this helps :)

    6. That's super helpful, [MENTION=8856]Saba[/MENTION]!! Thank you for the mini tutorial; I can barely get mine to stand horizontally on two legs, so that walkthrough helps.
       
    7. [MENTION=8856]Saba[/MENTION] Excellent advice! Say, are the front legs of your centaur tight? Or somewhat loose? Because mine are lose and I'm not sure yet how to assemble it tight. Unless the string has loosen.
       
    8. The Resin Tail Is Very Heavy So Its Hard To Do With The Luts Berry. The Wings Don't Help Ether. I Use The Tail As A Sorta Extra Leg To Balance Him Out.

    10. I had the same issue when I first got my centaur- I thought there's no way I'm going to be able to pose this guy! But then it just sort of clicked, and I'm pretty used to his jointing system now, he can do these poses:

      Mine are fairly tight- I can imagine tightening your centaur's string will help the joints 'click' into place :)

      Your pegasus is SO amazing! Love his mini wings!

      Yay for Rollo! What a handsome fellow :)

    11. Thanks for the rearing tutorial!
      I don't think I can do that with my DC centaur, but that's ok. XD hehe
      [MENTION=55948]gaiboiozz[/MENTION], love all your pics!!
      [MENTION=65470]Nattou[/MENTION], What a cute witchy-taur! Rollo is adorable~


      I just got my centaur back from her faceup and body blushing, so here is a preview before I get her wig and eyes all together.

    12. Beansproutmomo your centaur looks amazing! Love the colours you chose for her :)
       
    13. Thank you so much! :aheartbea
       
    14. I finally got off my duff and got some pics of Annwn, my own mini centaur. Of course not until afterward do I see that my camera lens needs a good wipe. :| Her butt's naked for now, but I'm going to take a crack at making a fiber-and-feather tail to match her wig. The feathers are on their way to me already, but I'm not having the best luck finding grey alpaca to match.

    15. She's so pretty! I want to try a fiber tail as well.
      There is a thread about it here with one tutorial, but I might try my own take on it as well.

      Just adding in a better picture of Matar as well~

    16. They still need to be customised a bit more but I liked this picture so much that I decided to share here ^^
      I hope no one mind the non mini centaurs on the picture :)

    19. Arrrrgggh--

      One ofd my cats knocked my centaur off the shelf and broke a good amount of the resin on her lower half. I really don't want to have to apoxy it. Here's hoping the last owner can find their order number so I can buy a replacement instead.
